Symbols of Transformation-audio

Description

Instructor: James Hollis, PhD

What are the roots of our contemporary crisis of meaning?

2012 is the one hundredth anniversary of the publication of Jung's Symbols of Transformation, which signaled his decisive break from Freud. In this analysis of a woman's "active imagination," Jung not only develops his argument for the spiritual nature of our collective journey, in addition to Freud's biological and Adler's social agendas, but provides telling insights into the collective meaning crisis of our time. He also identifies the psychosocial myths which govern the development and maturation of us all.

Required reading: Symbols of Transformation, C.G. Jung.
